Re: [e4-dev] What about E4 Editor?

[Eric Moffatt <emoffatt@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Angelo, take a look at https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=416399 where there's some discussion about editors and some of the issues...

I'm not sure why you think it's necessary to have a base class though; we already handle focus and dirty etc through the model.

I really want to get a viable MEditorDescriptor definition and a least some of the logic matching an input to an editor done by M3 so that we can kick it around for issues before release.

Onwards,
Eric

Hi E4 Team,

I know this topic comes from every time, but I would like to know what is the sate of E4 Editor.
My project CodeMirror-Eclipse provides Eclipse 3.x EditorPart, but I would like to provide too Eclipse 4.x Editor.

I would like to avoid developping my own Pojo class like ModelEditor. E4 provides the capability to manage your editor with Pojo, it's a great feature, but IMHO I think E4 should provide an abstract class for editor like EditorPart which manages dirty, focus, after that E4 could provide TextEditor class and a lot of project (JDT Java editor, WTP XML editor, etc) could migrate to a pure E4 code (but I don't know if it's the goal of E4 to remove 3.x EditorPart, View in the future?).

Many thank's for your help.

Regards Angelo
